DESCRIPTION

The setting is returned via pshared, and may be one of two values: PTHREAD_PROCESS_SHARED | Any thread of any process that has access to the memory where the read/write lock resides can manipulate the lock. | PTHREAD_PROCESS_PRIVATE | | Only threads created within the same process as the thread that initialized the read/write lock can manipulate the lock. This is the default value. | |
RETURN VALUES
If successful, the pthread_rwlockattr_getpshared function will return zero. Otherwise an error number will be returned to indicate the error.
ERRORS
The pthread_rwlockattr_getpshared function may fail if: [EINVAL] | | The value specified by attr is invalid. | |
